My Physics prof alluded to Captain Kangaroo yesterday and no one knew who he was talking about. It was to my surprise when I recognized this face as the very one my instructor makes when he gets excited, and obviously a Physics enthusiast is going to be just that (enthusiastic) every time he has the opportunity to A) introduce our young minds to new concepts in the realm of Physics or B) allude to outdated pop culture. So I’m left with the feeling that I’ve met this deceased man before…how unsettling.

When I went to the Wanderlust festival over the summer I found myself changing into more comfortable shoes in this lobby area at Squaw Valley and thinking that must be how Mr. Rogers feels, conducting a wardrobe change in front of a bunch of people in the middle of the day (especially because I had to put on socks and tie my shoes). We saw Andrew Bird later that day and he ended up taking off his shoes on stage and commenting on how it made him feel like Mr. Rogers. The man is some sort of enigma…or we both spent a great deal of our youth watching this guy converse with his neighbors and offer moral guidance with his toy models. Either way, Andrew Bird’s Dr. Stringz persona tells me he’s well on his way to putting all of his sweaters to use.](http://16.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ku562nHA3F1qzpwi0o1_400.jpg)
